Luxury holiday: Indulge in perfect luxury at one of the most stunning resorts in the Maldives

Sometimes you just really need to escape the demands of the every day. You want to switch off your phone, ignore your boss and do something that’s entirely centered on you. When you feel like this you need to indulge in a relaxing, luxurious resort holiday in a place that will whisk away all your worries.

One of the most popular ‘get away from it all’ destinations in the Southeast Asian region is the tropical island nation of the Maldives. A series of jewel-like islands dotted in a pretty chain surrounded by glittering pristine ocean and home to some of the best luxury resorts in the world.

The Residence Maldives is located at Falhumaafushi on the Gaafu Alifu Atoll. To add to the romance and the feeling of switching off you get there via a combination of scenic 55 minute flight and a fun 7 minute speedboat joyride. You can even do the whole ‘golden age of travel’ thing and take a seaplane from Velana International Airport.
